It sucks Burrows and Salo are injured, but maybe this will make them fresher for the home stretch...

I just hope they don't rush anyone back.

Willie Mitchell sent a resounding message to anyone willing to listen Monday.

Skating with several NHL players at UBC, the UFA defenceman wired a booming slapshot past the head of goaltender Martin Jones and shattered the glass behind the net.

Then moments later, while still sporting a giant grin on his face, he aimed again at the remaining fragments, finishing the job.

For a player whose career seemed to be jeopardy just months earlier, there's no better way to say “I'm back, baby”.

The hour-and-a-half session Monday was far from Mitchell's first venture back on the ice since suffering a concussion in January, having skated since early July.

I feel a lot more ready than I do usually at this time of the year," Mitchell said.

"I'm obviously flattered that a lot of teams are interested and fortunately enough, the main teams that are interested are teams that have a shot at winning it all and that's what it's all about."


Sounds like a guy that is motivated and wanting to prove himself...

Since when did Mitchell have a booming slap shot?

He's a stay at home defenseman, not a power play quarterback.

last season i noticed AV told him to join the rush, and to take slap shots from the point ALOT MORE. i also noticed, his slap shot was ... lacking ... compared to the likes of sami salo.

If I remember correctly, during the first part of the season, Mitchell was one of the top scorers (G+A) on the team!

It said, wired a booming slap shot. One that broke the glass. The writer of the article is just colouring it up. No need to nitpick at something like that.

I don't know... I still think Kes would make a better captain even though he has some maturing to do IMO. He has the kind of personality it takes to set the tone and be a game changer. Nothing against Hank, we all know what he's proven last season, I just don't see it.
